For those who appreciate simplicity in any form · SO can't really sit in the Fatboys and we need to sell them. Too bad because those were quite handy in a way. I was thinking should I get couple of pallets and build a sofa type of thing instead More on reddit.com

I've had two LoveSacs in the past (SuperSac size) and they were great. They're huge Durafoam-filled bean bags, and they are very sturdy and comfortable. If you live in a US metro area, try Craigslist since they're kinda pricey new (I found and sold mine there when I moved). More on reddit.com

I worked lovesac production while in college. They are legitimately BIFL. Most people get rid of them because they're over it, few get to be worn out. They used to have a lifetime warranty that they would honor as well. LoveSac is using closed cell memory foam which is one of the reasons they're expensive. It's the 40-60 lbs of foam (several lay z boys worth) and shredding and shipping it is not an easy process. Regardless of age, when you pick them up and flip them over a few times they'll puff right back up as if they're brand new. They can hold you like a chair without being up against a wall. The big LoveSacs require about 10 yards of fabric, heavy duty zippers, stitching, etc, thats to both to removable covers and to shroud the insert, which is the other reason they're as expensive as they are. If you keep it 10 years being able to swap out the cover can refresh the look as the insert is the most expensive part. if instead you're going for a traditional bean bag, small, up against a wall, or just want to stay cheap, or plan on throwing it away in a couple years, that's fine, but note the ones filled with styrofoam peanuts or anything similar: they compress and don't come back. If you intend to keep a cheap one expect little, or that you'll need to refill it over and over and over. I'd avoid it as it's a nightmare mess to refill, you can't shape it as it has the structural Integrity of sand, and cannot hold you in a sitting position in the middle of a floor The competitors to Lovesac used to ship you a half empty bag and another bag of filler and have you fill it yourself. Not sure if this is still the case. Tldr. They're spendy, but do deliver and can be shaped to act as a chair / bed / recliner for 10 years±. More on reddit.com

I love my courdaroy! It also doubles as a bed, you unzip the cover and have a filled bed that’s great for guests or movie nights. More on reddit.com
